Marta Balaga “Beware of Children” director Dag Johan Haugerud is ready to talk about “Sex” as the first part of his anticipated “Sex Dreams Love” trilogy is heading to Berlinale’s Panorama in February. “Making a film called ‘Sex’ calls for all sorts of jokes and misunderstandings during production, everything from being summoned to a ‘sex-meeting’ to emails being censored because someone had written ‘sex-props’ in the subject field,” he tells Variety ahead of the trailer premiere. “As for the screenplay, there aren’t that many jokes about sex in it.
Some awkward humor, yes. But the main point has been about trying to show the short span between ecstatic pleasure and shame. There are – and might always be – two sides of the same coin when it comes to sex, which also means that the uncomfortable and the funny sit quite tight.” Norwegian drama will focus on two men in heterosexual marriages whose unexpected experiences challenge their perceptions of sexuality, gender and identity.
One has a sexual encounter with another man, without experiencing it either as an expression of homosexuality or infidelity. The other finds himself in nocturnal dreams where David Bowie sees him as a woman, stirring confusion and leading him to question how much his personality is shaped by the gaze of others. Featuring Jan Gunnar Røise, Thorbjørn Harr, Siri Forberg and Birgitte Larsen, “Sex” is produced by Yngve Sæther and Hege Hauff Hvattum for Motlys.
“When it comes to the dialogue, I wasn’t trying to avoid anything. Quite the opposite,” admits Haugerud. “If you try to talk about sex in a sincere, truthful and shameless way, like the main character does, it’s not that hard to avoid being vulgar.
